2016 GCVW Judges Needed!
« on: July 11, 2016, 04:28:17 PM »
I have to say, last year was INCREDIBLE with the volunteers we had for Judging. I'm really hoping that 2016 shows the same excitement and help from the community for Judges, as we really do need you! This is your show and we really need help making sure your cars are judged well. The ideal number of volunteers is 19. Some of the classes are very large, so we need to divide and conquer at the show.



What you need to be a judge

1) Willingness to devote about an hour of time walking through and looking at the class of cars.
      - Judges get the best view, when you walk up with a clipboard the crowd parts and you really get to check out all the bits you wanted to see. We try and divide up the classes so you might be doing two or three smaller classes, or one large class in your hour of time.

2) Willingness to spend 20min tallying your scores.
      - As you judge each car, you're simply circling numbers from 1 to 5, and maybe adding some notes for yourself as you go. At the end of your session, before handing in your clipboard we simply need you to add up each car's score and write it at the top corner. This allows us to quickly tally up classes and figure out the top cars. We have a nice shaded tent with chairs to give you a break while you do this.


What you don't need

A) Expert detailed experience with every possible detail.
     - In an ideal world, each class would be judged by someone who knows every minute detail of the class, could tell if a fender was OE or repop from 50 feet away and knew if that taillight was mounted 6mm too far to the left. But hey, we're not quite at concourse judging yet. Cars are evaluated on basic standards such as "Paint", "Interior", "Engine", etc.  We always take requests for class judging, so if you know a lot about Standard beetles before '67 (and don't have one in the class), we'll probably have you judge that class.


How do I volunteer?

- Reply to this thread with your name...
- Send a PM to me, owdlvr (Dave Hord).

Let me know your name, Airspeed user name and if you have a particular class you want to judge. For obvious reasons, you aren't allowed to Judge your own class, but volunteering to Judge for other classes will ensure we have a great 2016 show.

Awesome! Thanks for everyone who's replied so far...still need more!

Just for clarity - I'm organizing the aircooled judging. So, who wants to judge a class!?! :)

Hello from the island!

While my experience in past years definitely  included more of the water cooled stuff, I would actually enjoy helping with the aircooled stuff. My current field of interest includes late split buses, early Bay windows, vanagons, and big window beetles.

Let me know if you still need some help, I will be there anyhow and I'd love to help you guys not just by attending but any other way I can!! You guys always help make our show awesome! Looking forward to this year, as always.

A big thank you to everyone who's volunteered...either via this thread, PM's to my inbox or by letting Geoff know. This year I've been terribly unorganized (more on that in a moment), but if you've offered help, we absolutely need you!

Judging Volunteers will meet at the main show tent for 11:00am - If we haven't yet met in person, I'm the tall lanky looking fellow with the big black watch...probably holding a clipboard of judging sheets. I feel bad about not replying to each of you individually, but the honest truth is I'm trying to pack a usual week of Judge assignments into the next 24 hours. Why, you might ask, am I so behind? I closed on a house and shop on Monday, and I'm in the middle of moving, so things in life have been a little busy! If you have volunteered to judge, and happen to run into me on either Friday or Saturday, it might be good to triple check I've marked your preferred class down.

Judging will be ready and dialled by our meeting at 11am...just as it has been the previous years. I may not sleep the night before, and the Rally Bug doesn't have a hope in being detailed, but I always hit a deadline!

-Dave
